Summer Run kick off

Last night was the 3rd annual (for me) kick off for the Marsha Rivkin ovarian cancer run that continues to inspire me to new heights. The Rivkin center was established by Dr Rivkin (Swedish hospital oncologist) who lost his wife to ovarian cancer. The funds raised by this running event he puts on, fund new research that is keeping me alive today. It is inspirational to hear the speakers at this event that include survivors, research doctors, Dr Rivkin and his family, and all the support team who are helping set up web sites, doing the volunteer work, and most importantly raising fund for the cause. The run is on July 26th and I wanted to let you all know so you can join in the fun and party afterwards. Mark your calendars now, and check the progressing website to join Team Sussex www.swedishsummerun.org .
